The Minority Leader, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, has warned that growing divisions among NPP lawmakers are undermining the caucus’s ability to hold the government to account.

Speaking at a caucus meeting in Parliament on Thursday, Afenyo-Markin said the biggest threat to the Minority was not the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) Majority, but disunity within the NPP MPs themselves.

“We are not here by accident. We are here by choice,” he told the lawmakers on the seventh floor of Job 600. “But that duty is suffering. Our people are suffering. And we are allowing our internal disagreements to become their burden.”

Afenyo-Markin said the Majority was working strategically to sideline the Minority, but internal rifts among NPP MPs were making the task easier.

“The Majority sits across from us with one agenda: to suppress our views, to silence our expression. And what are we doing? We are doing their work for them,” he said.

He urged the MPs to put aside personal and political ambitions ahead of the 2028 elections and to remain focused on their shared responsibility.

“Yes, we will disagree… but we must never allow our internal disagreements to make the people of Ghana the collateral damage of our divisions,” he added.

The Minority Leader accused the government of mismanaging the economy, abusing state institutions and increasing public frustration, saying a united Minority was essential to countering these issues.

“Right now, as we sit divided, the government is running riot… belief without action is betrayal,” he said.
